$BKS DD Notes ~ http://www.ddnotesmaker.com/BKS

split into 2 companies in offing--- books and nooks, per CNBC

just don't see a loss of .59 in the cards.... i am hoping for cash flow positive, not out of the cards; core business is rocking along and nook expenses are being sliced and diced. with 490 million on the books last quarter i bet we are looking at around 600m or so; with a cap of 1.25 billion. screams buy to me, looking forward to report tomorrow.

Tough break for BKS this morning.

(Reuters) - John Malone's Liberty Media Corp is slashing its stake in Barnes & Noble Inc by 90 percent, three years after it invested $204 million in the struggling U.S. bookstore chain and its then promising e-reader, the Nook.

Barnes & Noble shares fell as much as 10.7 percent after Liberty is selling down its holding to around 1.66 percent from its previous 16.6 percent, bought in 2011 through an investment in preferred stock. (r.reuters.com/med36t)

Liberty said it was selling a majority of its holding to institutional investors. It did not name the buyers or how much money it received from the sale.

See..... I told you so.

Hit high of $23.71. Making a killing here.

Daybull

Youre welcome.....

Watching the March 18 Calls, thinking about scooping up (either the 17s or 18s) before the close..... B & N might agree to the offer in AH or over the weekend. And if that happens, gap up on the open, Monday morning. But if not, I wont risk too much, considering the Options are pretty close to being in the money.....

Wtf - that's a big candle

Barnes & Noble is Now Oversold (BKS)

In trading on Thursday, shares of Barnes & Noble Inc (NYSE: BKS) entered into oversold territory, hitting an RSI reading of 29.6, after changing hands as low as $13.46 per share. By comparison, the current RSI reading of the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is 67.5. A bullish investor could look at BKS’s 29.6 RSI reading today as a sign that the recent heavy selling is in the process of exhausting itself, and begin to look for entry point opportunities on the buy side. Great Entry Point Now!

BUY, BUY, BUY

DayBull

still waiting for that to happen lol

BKS.....HOT BUY.....

Two Great News Events.....

Barnes & Noble is now selling digital editions of college newspapers through Nook
Barnes & Noble has partnered with UWIRE, a wire service for college newspapers, to make digital editions of said newspapers available on Nook. It looks as if over 220 newspapers are available so far, including titles like the Harvard Crimson and Columbia Spectator.

Barnes & Noble the world’s largest bookseller and leading retailer of content, digital media and educational products, today announced amazing new low pricing for the highly acclaimed NOOK HD and NOOK HD+ tablets in the UK. Beginning today, customers can purchase the 7-inch NOOK HD for just £79 (8GB) and £99 (16GB), while the 9-inch NOOK HD+ tablet is available for just £129 (16GB) and £149 (32GB), both online at NOOK.co.uk and at leading retailers across the UK, while stocks last.

Shorts will get caught with their pants down.
BUY, BUY, BUY

Daybull

(((( BKS MAKE ME HAPPY ))))
A favorite one stop shop to short.

Thanks BKS!

Never going to happen. BKS will move back over $15.00 today and continue on to at least $16.00. It will likely channel in that pps area for awhile before moving higher.

staying short

this stock should be under $10

Shorted this down from $21 - $16, now I'll be shorting this down to single digits lol, looks like the only thing this company is good for at this point is shorting :3 jmho

The rumours are now, that AMAZON could target as well Nook.
If Amazon were to purchase Nook Media, it would gain a valuable brick-and-mortar partner in Barnes & Noble, turning a former adversary into an ally. Amazon could possibly use Barnes & Noble locations as fulfillment and local pick-up centers for online purchases. Barnes & Noble could in turn help launch physical versions of Amazon’s self-published digital offerings, which have experienced lackluster sales. Most importantly, Amazon could phase out the Nook and replace it with its Kindle devices, which would make it the undisputed king of the e-reader market with access to books from both Barnes & Noble and Amazon.

Conclusion: Microsoft as one of the largest shareholders in the NOOK project would have to move fast. Will be fun the to see - how this works out.
The good thing is, the shorts were wrong and get killed and most of the Wallstreet analysts did not see the picture either, as always we could say.
